Welcome to Litsy!

@dabbe #ThreeListThursday #TLT I love the golden age of movies 🎥 and my favourite actresses are 1. Katherine Hepburn - Philadelphia Story ( with Carey Grant is a favourite). 2. Bette Davis - All About Eve or Dark Victory are my faves 3. Colette Colbert - It Happened One Night is my fave ( I love the part at the end when the horn blows and you know the Wall of Jericho is tumbling down

#tlt #threelistthursday Thanks @TheSpineView for the tag!

1) Ingrid Bergman (isn‘t Casablanca the best??)
2) Maggie Smith (ahhh, Downton Abbey)
3) Elizabeth Taylor (those violet eyes, I loved her in National Velvet; and my grandpa met her when he changed her tire when she had a flat in Marfa, Texas when she was filming Giant. She went on to bigger and better things and Grandpa did, too. He eventually became mayor of Marfa. 😊

In no order:
*Laura Dern (What a filmography! Here are just a few of my favorites: Wild At Heart, Blue Velvet, Jurassic Park, The Master)
*Amy Adams (Some favorites: Arrival, Sharp Objects, Vice)
*For relatively new talent, no doubt my favorite is Lily Gladstone based off of her incredible performance in Killers of The Flower Moon (the first Native American to win a Golden Globe for Best Actress in Motion Picture Drama & the first to ever (CONT)

Just a cute little fluff piece to fill in a few minutes of a lazy Saturday. There are some cute tidbits from filming of these romantic moments that I didn't know before, so not a total waste. #26-2024

A delightful coffee table book containing photos of silver screen legends looking at books. The captions make some effort to discern the true readers from obvious publicity staging. They actually put some effort into trying to determine the book as well, when the cover is obscured.

Mel Brooks is an American treasure. He is the mastermind behind some of the funniest films, television, and Broadway productions of all time. "All About Me!" chronicles his life, from his childhood in Brooklyn to the heights of success in entertainment. What appealed to me most about this book was his work ethic. He may be one of the hardest working entertainers in history.

This book is a two-fer. You get a synopsis of a movie plus a detailed account of the criminal and the crimes that inspired the film. Starting with “M”, made in 1931, the book includes movies such as “Psycho”, “The Exorcist”, “The Silence of the Lambs”, “Scream”, and “Poltergeist”, to name a few. If you like scary movies, you might enjoy this book.

‘Eagle Scout, Missoula, Montana‘

David Lynch has been one of my all time favorite film directors for years, so I was ecstatic to finally grab a copy of this book. This collection of interviews covers his life and creative interests from childhood on, and discusses his film projects up to Mulholland Drive.
